WAstlkeroS. June 2s.-The unani-
mo1s opinion Of tho cores Of southern
leaders I'D politicians now In town Is
that President Cleveland win get every
delegation from the south for his renom-
ination. They don't mention any other
name. They add thatthc northern Dem

they will have trouble in some of the
states In holding their own. There is q
positive sentiment in favor of Mr.. Car

1t Is proposed within a very short time
to have o conference on the subject in
order TO determine whether to place him
formally on the track with Cleveland as

/ John w. Simpson, one Of the pioneer
settlers of our country. departed this life
June 20, 1887, He wal born in Wash.
ington county, Tenn. Feb. 80, 1900. His
many and patriotic deeds are interviewer
with the early history Of ou country.
We owe to him and others the fostering
and development of our early industries,
as well as those enterprises which have
grown into grand systems which our PEG.
pie are justly proud of to-day. For 81
years, like an oak of the forest, Mr.. Simp.
son stood by his country's best interest;
he saw with delight Its infant progress
begin and with his own hands and money
helped and strengthened Its growth and
development, and 1t was his good fortune
to live to see It's elimination In a grand
system Of railroads, colleges. towns and
cities that adorn and bcautify our country
to-day.
Especially was his attention directed to
railroads. and at a time when the now E.
T., Va. s. Ga. r. r. charter was suspend
edin the balance of success or failure, by
reason Of n third of Its stock being un-
taken, Mr.. Simpson was the first, with
four others, to com to Its rescue and
with their W money purchased the re.
naming stock and saved the charter.
But little do the people stop to think,
when they hear the whistle Of the great
commercial railway car bearing our pro.
ducts to all quarters Of the globe, how
much they to their fathers for this
grand system of transportation.
Mr.. Simpson was public spirited, and
perhaps but few men have done more III
q quiet way for the good of the country
than MIR. Simpson. he has helped to lay
the corner stone of many Of our colleges
and churches and his influence and
money have been felt In the building and
growth Of our towns and cities.
Mr.. Simpson was a man of wonderful
foresight and energy and in his younger
life was very successful in business; he
was generous and benevolent, was Just
and upright, In oil of his dealings. After
his marriage he settled down on the old
homestead three miles east Of Jonesboro,
where he spent the remainder of his life.
He raised q most interesting family. and

citizen. and a just man has been called

and useful life. well spent In all that was
good and high. pure and noble, We feel
that he Is at rest in peace with his God;
that he has passed over the river and Is
sweetly resting beneath the shade Of the
trees waiting and watching for the com.
